Emerging shortly after the 150th anniversary of Emile Durkheim’s birth, Durkheim and Violence, offers new and radical perspectives on one of the most pressing issue ofour age: violence. Tackling the question of violence in the Durkheimian oeuvre itself,this volume also boldly offers Durkheimian and Post Durkheimian explorations ofsuch controversial, but timely subjects such as Abu-Ghraib, mass-mediated suicide,war, and the ontology of power and the sacred.

Edited by S. Romi Mukherjee, an expert on the Durkheimian sociology of religions and Durkheimianism in inter-war France, the volume includes articles by an interdisciplinary and international cast of expert sociologists, political theorists, philosophers, and historians of religion. While confronting Durkheimianism in context, the volume also turns the Durkheimian corpus towards a confrontation with various forms of contemporary irrationalism. The volume thus reveals the currency of the Durkheimian tradition, while charting new paths in modern, post-modern, and hyper-modern theory.
